The Association Between Socioeconomic Status and Adult Mortality in a Developing Country: Evidence From a Nationally Representative Longitudinal Survey of Indonesian Adults.
Article in The journals of gerontology. Series B, Psychological sciences and social sciences, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
objectivesTo estimate the association between socioeconomic status (SES) and adult mortality in Indonesia and determine the contribution of adult behavioral risk factors to SES differences in mortality.
methodsDiscrete failure-time regression models and period life tables were used to estimate life expectancy at age 30 (e30) across wealth and consumption groups by sex and urban/rural residence.
resultsFor urban men, e30 increases by an average of 1.10 years per wealth quartile (p = .014) from 38.7 years (95% confidence interval (CI): 37.4-40.5) in the bottom wealth quartile to 42.1 years (95% CI: 40.3-44.1) in the top quartile; for rural men, e30 increases by an average of 1.35 years per quartile (p = .007) from 40.6 years (95% CI: 39.2-42.5) in the bottom wealth quartile to 44.3 years (95% CI: 42.4-46.6) in the top quartile. SES differences are smaller for women. Behavioral risk factors are inconsistently patterned across SES and do not explain SES differences in mortality. DISCUSSION: The associations between SES and adult life expectancy in Indonesia are moderate when compared with developed countries and are not explained by traditional behavioral risk factors. In a context where behavioral risk factors are inconsistent across SES groups, mortality inequality may be driven by inequalities in health care access or other social factors.
